+<para>Tuning into a Digital TV physical channel and starting decoding it
+    requires to change a set of parameters, in order to control the
+    tuner, the demodulator, the Linear Low-noise Amplifier (LNA) and to set the
+    antena subsystem via Satellite Equipment Control (SEC), on satellital
+    systems. The actual parameters are specific to each particular digital
+    TV standards, and may change as the digital TV specs evolutes.</para>
+<para>In the past, the strategy used were to have an union with the parameters
+    needed to tune for DVB-S, DVB-C, DVB-T and ATSC delivery systems grouped
+    there. The problem is that, as the second generation standards appeared,
+    those structs were not big enough to contain the additional parameters.
+    Also, the union didn't have any space left to be expanded without breaking
+    userspace. So, the decision was to deprecate the legacy union/struct based
+    approach, in favor of a properties set approach.</para>
+<para>By using a properties set, it is now possible to extend and support any
